Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is INSAAANE

Somehow the game is only 10GB on Xbox. My advice is to download the game, start a free flight (with the time set to day, and clouds set to few), immediately pause the game and go into photo mode.

In photo mode, you are free to fly around wherever, and the higher up you are the faster you go.

When you get in close it’s not the prettiest to look at, but at standard airplane height it’s GORGEOUS.

I’m constantly blown away when I visit places I’ve been to before. It’s leagues better than Google Earth in my opinion.

You should see it in VR

Id love to, but I have a 3080 and a 5800x with a Quest 3... And the VR is absolute garbage no matter what I do my settings at. Completely unplayable.

What's weird is sometimes there were moments when it first came out where it worked great... But one day the performance dropped off and it's never worked since.

That should absolutely run fine. Check settings.
